Good Girl feat. Actiranger Pink

in the books, Gimli is an incredible, poetic, charming, heroic, axe wielding sexy man!!

and Legolas is a skilled but funny, cheeky, whimsical, singing prince of Mirkwood!!

this is really apparent in the battle of Helm's Deep

in the books, Eomer is already with them and has dramatically charged out into battle with Aragorn when he's overwhelmed by orcs. Gimli heroically launches himself into danger and beheads several, saving Eomer from death, then he wonders back up to his position on the wall and greets Legolas with the news of his kills. Legolas is the first to mention their competition and tease Gimli with his higher score

later, Gimli and Eomer are separated from Aragorn, the situation is clearly grave and he rejoins Legolas and informs him of where he last saw Gimli. Legolas frets but ultimately breaks the tension by saying he wished to see Gimli so he could boast of his even higher kill count

just ugahhsjh I can't explain my thought very well

absolute cowards, I say

And Legolas, everyone’s favorite lightly feral backwoods weirdo who is terrifyingly competent and talks to trees and rocks and rivers and invents songs on the fly and makes dumb jokes while his traveling companions are pretty much actively dying in the snow!

You're holding an actual child to higher standards than you hold yourself, but it's the child that should be removed from public and community spaces. For your comfort.

You're willingly backing a guy that hasn't even won the fucking primary yet as The Guy to beat Collins and make her seat blue. But when he suddenly decides to do similar shit like Collins or worse, then what?
